Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has welcomed its latest cohort of 31 apprentices, bringing the total number of apprentices at the company’s Centre of Luxury Manufacturing Excellence and Headquarters in Goodwood to 98. This new intake will spend between two and four years honing their skills across various departments and teams.

This year’s apprentices will engage in diverse roles, including positions in the interior trim centre, technical assembly, sewing, interior and exterior surface centres, robot operations, milling machining, assembly, and test & finish. For the first time, apprenticeship opportunities have also expanded into new areas such as data analytics and product development.

The apprenticeship program combines hands-on experience with academic study, leading to nationally recognized qualifications. Level 2 and 3 apprentices will undertake vocational courses at Chichester College Group, which has received an outstanding rating from Ofsted. Those pursuing Degree Apprenticeships will study at the University of Chichester, ranked among the top 40 universities in the UK.
